About

UNHCR is the United Nations refugee agency. This FAQ is a legal-definitional reference on the distinction between refugees and migrants. It is not an equity-language guide and is not part of the commons corpus; it appears here as a reference source for immigration and displacement terms.

Access

Host posture is link-out-only: the commons links to UNHCR’s public PDF and does not hold a local archive. The year above reflects the FAQ’s 2024 publication date.
